Seashore Dress (EN)

€6.90

The Seashore Dress is one of those pieces that feels easy the second you put it on. Light and breezy for summer, it’s perfect for everything from garden parties to fancy date nights, from lounging around the house to emergency ice cream runs. When the weather turns chillier, you can layer it effortlessly under a Barbour-style jacket or a city chic trench coat, just swap your sandals for boots and suddenly it’s a whole new look.

The Seashore Dress is knitted top down. The pattern features different lace sections that keep the work interesting without feeling too overwhelming. The pattern features instructions to work the sleeves to a 3/4 length, but you can easily modify this and work the sleeves to a full length too.
